yesterday i had another appointment with my doctor. i had convinced myself that she would put me out of my misery and order me to head to the hospital that very moment. alas, in a very succinct manner, she said, "you still have time." this coming from the doctor who just barely had her OWN baby three months ago, and when asked how labor was, she responded, "it's uncomfortable, lisa." man, she does not spare ANY detail!
in good news, she did freak me out, taking one look at me, rushing out and back into the room, examining my belly all over and asking about my birth history. all this and all she said was, "i think she's going to be a small baby, lisa." well, that's the first good news i've heard in weeks! i admit, the fact that mark was a 9-pounder has been weighing heavily on my mind.
just in case you've forgotten what she looks like:
no monster comments, please.
we played in the pool almost the whole time. tans received were minimal. :(
after a couple days, we headed to the family cabin. there's not even electricity at this place, let alone tv. that means we get to do lots of cool other things. mark got to dirt bike with a bicycle helmet. i'm so glad to know his brain was safe.
we went hiking, but let it be known that there were two trails leading to the same location: one that took almost two hours and one that took fifteen minutes. i'll let you guess which one i opted for...
